New Legit Napster Service Coming

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the rising-from-the-ashes dept.

Serith submitted a CNN story talking about the new Napster Service. This is of course an attempt to legitimize music sharing. Provided the price point is fair and paying is convenient, I'll be first in line. Of course the odds of that happening seems awfully weak.

    Roxio managed to buy most of Roxio's assets, but it did not assume any of the company's pending liabilities.

    That's pretty nice I wish I could buy up all of my own assets and hot have to pay for any of my liabilities.

    X-napsterite Shawn Fanning as a consultant one of the most important points in the article, hopefully with his help we can finally have an easy to use legal way to acquire music.

    As opposed to last time where he set the world afire for providing a way to illegally share music?
